So i went for full comfort with almost every extra and this small engine and now I've been waiting for a month for the car.
It's faster than my 116bhp 20 year old diesel golf, which has always been enough for me, so I can't complain and even now I heard from you that you can tune it to 200bhp, which I guess voids the warranty?

BMW Warranty will be void of course. The engine of the 318i is probably the same as the one of the 320i. Stage 1 tuning will deliver for both about 260hp and 420Nm and this brings it to 330i level. Seems plenty to me in real live.
